Summary:
The city of Cassville, Wisconsin is home to two schools - Cassville Elementary and Cassville High - which serve students from kindergarten through 12th grade. The Cassville School District is ranked 167 out of 428 districts in Wisconsin and is rated 3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
Cassville Elementary consistently ranks in the top 25% of Wisconsin elementary schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the last two school years. The school's 4th-grade students outperform the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies, and Science, and it maintains a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 5.1%. In contrast, Cassville High School has seen more fluctuations in its performance, achieving a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2022-2023 school year but dropping to a 3-star rating in the following year. However, the high school still maintains a high 4-year graduation rate of 88.2% and a low dropout rate of 1.1%, and its 10th-grade students outperform the state average in Social Studies and Mathematics ACT scores.
Despite these strengths, both schools face significant socioeconomic challenges, with over 40% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, the high school has a much higher chronic absenteeism rate of 24.7% compared to the elementary school, suggesting that attendance issues may be more prevalent at the secondary level. The district's ability to address these challenges and maintain the strengths of its schools will be crucial for ensuring the success of all students in the Cassville community.
